TIE sawaust Qaestion.

The Truckes Republican says:
The Assembly Committee on
Fish and Game was granted leave
of absence from Saturday until
Tuesday, in order that they might
visit Truckee and inspect the sub
ject of the deposit of sawdust in
the Truckee river. The honorable
gentlemen may be expected to ar
rive here tomorrow morning, and
our leading citizens should be on
hand to receive them and make
their stay here pleasant. We were
not aware that the sawdust question
was before the Legislature this
year, except that the Nevada Legis-
lature had presented memorial re-
questing some legislation on the
subject. 1t is probably for the pur-
pose of ascertaining if such legisla-
tion is needed that brings the Com
mittee here. We shall see that
they are properly enlightened.
Latest: A dispatch received this
afternoon states that the Senate
and Assembly Committees on Fish
and Game will be here tsmsrrow,
and will meet a Committee frem
the Nevada Legislature. Together
they will consider the sawdust
question. Senator Yell, the author
of the sawdust bill two years ago,
will be with the party.

One morning, however, early In

nineteen solid votes and as it was
offered Lanmon and Laughton
looked like men who had just been
woke up fren a sound sleep to be
confronted by some strange and
unusual spectacle. Meanwhile, the
tive lady Clerks we're writing away
apparently unconscious of anything
at all going on. and their faces
were as blank and innocent as that
Of little child hunting for four
leaf clevers in a meadow. One of
the Senator'S, however, told the AP-
PEAL reporter that he saw one of
the ladies, he is not positive which,
slide her small foet slyly under the
desk and press it Npop the foot of
her companion but his version il

Such q thing did not seem plausi-

Recently the APPEAL reporter
interviewed the ladies on the sub

Il see you ladies captured the
copying of the journal.
oh, did we, indeed; We are glad
to hear that" said Mrs. Pixley
gleefully. Il was told it had passed
but paid SO little attention at the
time that I was not certain"
Il hadn't heard mach about it,
said Miss Clinton with ssrt of

DO they pay extra for the uork?"
asked Mrs. Pixley with a perfectly
composed face.

''Oh, how nice; we didn't sup
pose there were any extra emolu-

alive strangers to the ways of legis-

WHO lobbied it through"
Il beg pardon, Sir; did you
say lobhied? These professional
terms are all strange to us. Some
one just made the motion and it
went through. We didn't say a
word to anybody, did We, Miss
Clinton?"
"Oh, no indeed; not word. We
could never ask for such thing as
that, could we, Mrs. Pixley?"
Couldn't lobby if you tried"
"Ob, no. We leave that for the
men to do.
Yes, l understand"
I'm glad you do; it's about
